Miles Observing

Momma when I am really old I am still going to live wif you.
Even when I have kids. But you aren't going to be the boss of my kids, I am going to be the boss of my kids. You can be the boss of Daddoe.


Me: (on day 6 of Kindergarten) Have you made any friends yet at school?

Miles (exasperated:) No Momma, the boys haven't made friends yet. Only the girls have made friends.


Well, duh! Of course!

Miles today

While watching this with me


Momma, I like Miss Marbles
Is Miss Marbles an angel dressed up like an old lady?




Then at bedtime, after I had told him to get back in bed, that I had things I needed to go do

Him: But Momma, I am a night creature!


Me: I know Miles, but you need to settle down and go to sleep

Him: But Momma, my brain doesn't work that way!

Me (to myself:) Where have I heard that before???

Miles

Momma, when do I get my new team? Next week right?

Miles' Prayer

at the high school today after getting to stand on the big stage, under the bright hot lights, and watching someone work the fly system, I hear Miles whispering this prayer:




"Please God, please let me grow up and work in the Pheatre. Please God, Please."

Momma did you hear that commercial? For the Egg Genie?

Do you know what they said? They said it would make bacon less greasy!

(with complete disgust) Now why would you want to do that? That is the best part!

Miles

Look Momma, I am the Hot Dog Man.

Miles

with the doctor:

dr: So Miles what is going on?

miles: Well I am here for you look at my eyebrow and my ear.
Not that ear the odder one (as she starts the exam.)

dr: Why the other one?

miles: Because it hurts when I burp.
